Kemba Walker Hits Game Winning Shot as Celtics Beat Clippers

Jayson Tatum led a 3-point shooting spree and scored 34 points, helping the Boston Celtics held off the Clippers 119-115 without Paul George in the Los Angeles lineup. The Clippers sure could have used the NBA’s 3-point shooting leader. George, who is hitting 48% from long range, sat out with a sore right foot two nights after making 8 of 9 3-pointers in a win at Cleveland. The Celtics closed the game with six straight free throws to hand the Clippers just their third loss at home. Kawhi Leonard led Los Angeles with 28 points and 11 rebounds, but he missed all five of his 3-point attempts.
